Lifes Companions

Life’s companions

With what Ghosts will I saunter down that last mile ?
How many ?, will keep me company, make me smile.

Fill these empty footsteps, yet, all the while,
make that journey one, forever to remember

long after it was terminated that fateful September.
A time when it became clear, this was the end

and we would never walk again, but I, as a friend
for these long five years where I try hard to fend.

So nice to see a word or two for you, again, Linda !!! It has been awhile !!! Che sara sara . Was it John who said that life goes on while you are occupied with living it ??? , or something like that . Thank you for “ Wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ”, Linda, as for “ May all your days shine and dreams come true. :) ” Do not we all wish for that ???, and back at you !!!, but life ?, fate ?, karma ?, Mother Nature ?, the universal consciousness seem to have other planes for us !!!, at times . Unfortunately Linda, what should be and what is are seldom on the same page, but I do hope that you know much of “ Every day “, ” with family and friends. ” . Unfortunately Linda, “ May the true meaning of the holiday season fill your heart and home. ” much of mankind has drifted far beyond that understanding . I hope that you have enjoyed today and will with what is left of it !!! B. J. “A” 2 ( Bill . )
